Phoenix

A phoenix needs to
burn and die
before it can be
born again.

Imagine the pain
of being burned alive,
turning into ashes,
falling apart into
leptons and quarks.

Imagine being turned
into nothing,
becoming nothing,
not knowing
who you are
any longer.

But there is still
a force,
there are still
force carriers,
as invisible as they
might seem
that carry you on.
